Get Barton Record Contacts

A release question belongs with the office that created the record. The contacts below route Barton County jail movements, court dispositions, state prison releases, supervision status, and notification issues to the responsible public office. Check the office’s current instructions before visiting or sending a request.

This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release anyone, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the responsible agency directly for those services.

Barton Jail and Court Contacts

The Barton County Sheriff is the first contact for a Barton booking, release, transfer, or booking photograph. Published office hours were not found, so call before visiting. The listed report-copy price is $2 per report or copy, exact cash. Ask whether that amount applies to the specific release sheet or photograph before ordering.

Missouri Release Record Contacts

Choose the path that matches the question. The home page covers a named person and the full release-record request. State supervision, sentence dates, and notification records use different offices.

  • For a prison release or final discharge, contact MODOC Constituent Services at 573-526-2695 or constsrv@doc.mo.gov.
  • For post-release supervision, District 9 is at 1919 N. Rangeline, Joplin, MO 64801, phone 417-629-3200. Barton’s alternate reporting site is in Lamar and operates Monday through Wednesday by appointment.
  • For the question “when will they be released,” use the release date lookup and then verify the calculation with MODOC or the court.
  • For a specific custody alert, use the current MOVANS instructions. MOVANS help is 573-526-1929 or movans@dps.mo.gov, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
  • For people entered in the last day, the 24-hour release guide explains the Sheriff request because Barton has no public recent-release feed.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the official BOP or ICE locator and the actual holding facility.
  • For a specific facility, use the detention-system pages listed below and in the footer.
